I did exactly that. Multiple times, including before Fallout 3 came out, after, and also pretty recently. IMHO, Fallout 2 sucks in comparison with anything F3+.

I did exactly that. Multiple times, including before Fallout 3 came out, after, and also pretty recently. IMHO, Fallout 2 sucks in comparison with anything F3+. Worldbuilding might be there, but the gameplay simply isn't. There's nothing wrong with being "a reskinned Elder Scrolls". Elder Scrolls is a great game (series). It is up there in the hall of masterpieces along with GTA and CS. If you don't believe my word, look at Steam stats: https://store.steampowered.com/stats/ https://store.steampowered.com/stats/ Like many here I also believed F3 and NV had better storytelling. But many hours of playing later, I see that I actually prefer F4.
